Chapter 646 The thing that dug out the roots of the great family
Chapter 646: Something that digs out the roots of aristocratic families
Liu Cheng took the Three-Character Sutra and read it here.
The paper of the Three-Character Classic is very good, and the production is also well-made. Overall, it is very good.
The verses in the Three Character Classic are the same as those we are familiar with at the beginning, but there are big differences and changes in the latter part.
In addition to the Three-Character Classic, there are also Disciple Regulations and the Thousand-Character Classic.
These have certain changes.
This was Liu Cheng's hand, changing it to be more in line with the current situation and some of the effects he wanted.
These are the enlightenment reading materials prepared by Liu Cheng.
Compared with poetry, calligraphy, etiquette, etc., which are directly very profound things, the Three-Character Classic, Thousand-Character Classic, and Disciple Rules are simple and straightforward, but also contain a certain amount of truth. They are more suitable for people who have never studied before.
Carry out enlightenment.
Reducing the difficulty of learning at the beginning is conducive to the spread of culture.
Liu Cheng took these out, looked through them, and then took out another book.
The title of the book is Fables.
Opening the cover of the book, the first fable is about destroying a seedling and encouraging its growth.
After all, nowadays, agriculture is everywhere, and many people are familiar with farming, which can easily arouse people's resonance.
Then there are waiting for the rabbit, the farmer and the snake, the fox pretends to be a tiger, the monkey goes down the mountain, sits in the well and looks at the sky, the crow drinks water, the tortoise and the hare race...
These fables are written in half classical Chinese and half vernacular.
More straightforward and easy to understand.
In addition, it is full of stories and is very interesting. When the time comes, it will definitely arouse the interest of those who go to school.
Just like him in later generations, when he was in school, when new books were handed out, he would first read the Chinese books.
After reading the texts in the Chinese textbook, go to the history book...
After putting the fable back to its original place, Liu Cheng walked aside and pulled out a book with the word arithmetic written on the cover.
This is a book that teaches arithmetic.
In this book, there is a one-to-one correspondence at the beginning, with three lines of numbers from zero to nine.
One line is capitals, one line is simplified, and one line is Arabic numerals.
But by this time, Arabic numerals were no longer called Arabic numerals, but instead were called imperial numerals.
At the beginning, Liu Cheng taught the ten numbers from 0 to 9, as well as some corresponding arithmetic methods, to Liu Shui. Later, Cai Yong, Li Ru, Gu Yong and other people came into contact with and learned from it.
Although Liu Chenggong told them at the beginning that these numbers were called Arabic numerals, Cai Yong, Li Ru and others felt that this name was too convoluted.
They had never heard of Arabia or anything like that. When they heard it, they thought it was a small country.
They saw this thing from the emperor's uncle, and it was also the emperor's uncle who first spread it.
In addition, Liu Cheng's status continued to rise and his achievements continued to increase, so the Arabic numerals became the numerals of the emperor's uncle.
Liu Cheng felt blushing at first, but he got used to it later.
Later, he became more confident.
Then, when he started compiling teaching materials during his previous stay in Yushan, he unceremoniously named it officially.
After comparing the uppercase and lowercase letters with the abbreviations, all subsequent numerical calculations are written using simple imperial uncle numerals.
The content of the textbook is first about addition and subtraction, then multiplication and division.
It contains the definitions of addition and subtraction, vertical calculation methods, examples, and multiplication tables...
After carefully reading the arithmetic book, Liu Cheng put it back in its original place.
Seeing this, you can basically understand what Liu Cheng wants to do.
That's right, he just wants to initially establish a large number of primary schools in Guanzhong, so that many school-age children and other people who want to learn can learn this knowledge and open up the people's wisdom, without engaging in education to fool the people or education for happiness.
Then, through this method, we can break the monopoly on culture and education by aristocratic families in one fell swoop!
Let the children of ordinary people also be able to go to school and have the opportunity to receive education!
At the same time, it can also eliminate the kidnapping of the country by aristocratic families.
Liu Cheng has a royal guard at his disposal, so he naturally knows what the wealthy families in Guanzhong, Yizhou and other places think.
I feel that I can't live without them. As time goes by, I will definitely cooperate with them and make compromises.
Thinking about this news, Liu Cheng looked at the many primary school textbooks in the room, and then thought about the vigorous construction of education that would start in the future, and couldn't help but smile on his face.
I feel very happy.
Those aristocratic families who think this way don't know how long they can remain arrogant.
Others can't contain them or solve their problems, but they can do it themselves.
I can dig out their roots directly!
Liu Cheng has actually been secretly considering and planning these things for a long time.
You can see this from the moment you meet Ma Jun and ask him to practice printing.
However, this matter is different from leading troops without fighting. It can produce significant results quickly.
This is a terrazzo kung fu.
However, fortunately at this time, initial results have been achieved.
Now that Liangzhou has been pacified, the Huns in the north have also been dealt with.
The interior is initially stable.
He also had to be named King of Han.
Many of the teaching materials I have produced have been printed.
Wait for a while, and then you can start to do this.
As long as the primary, junior and secondary education systems are established.
And established an official examination system.
Then the roots of these aristocratic families have been dug out.
It is simply impossible to continue dancing.
As for the development to the point where "the king and his horse share the world", it is even more impossible.
It is not easy to have such a situation where there is only a changing of dynasties but no aristocratic family is destroyed...
With these thoughts in mind, Liu Cheng took out another book.
The title of the book is Nature.
It contains some natural knowledge.
For example, the place we live in now is called the earth, and the earth is round.
On the earth, there are many oceans and many lands.
The big man only occupies a part of it.
Then, as a master of geography in later generations, he directly drew the rough outlines of the oceans and states, as well as their relative positions, based on his memory.
On it, the location of the big man is roughly marked.
And names like Japanese, Bangziren, etc.
In addition, Liu Cheng also made additional annotations on the map.
For example, Japan and South America are rich in silver.
For example, the place marked as South Kunlun Nu is rich in gold.
For example, Bangzi has labels rich in copper and iron coal mines, ginseng and deer antlers, and female slaves...
For another example, some places were labeled sweet potatoes and potatoes by Liu Cheng.
He also explained in detail what sweet potatoes and potatoes are, and focused on the amazing yields of these two things...
Liu Cheng didn't mind drawing such things and incorporating them into primary school education.
I don't mind making the whole big man know.
Not to mention that after seeing the book he wrote, someone's eyes were opened and their endless interest was aroused. Then they traveled across the ocean to bring back sweet potatoes, potatoes, and other high-yielding crops.
Not to mention that in the future, a large number of people will expand outward and colonize based on what they have written, and bring back a lot of good things...
Anyway, no matter who does these things, eventually these wealth and these rich products will return to the Han Dynasty.
The Han Dynasty will become stronger and richer because of this.
Moreover, Liu Cheng also believes that with these educations from childhood, there will definitely be people who do this.
And once someone really does this and gets huge benefits from it, then many people will do it.
Moreover, when that time comes, Liu Cheng himself will take the initiative to promote the development of some things after solving them...
In addition, you can also use this method to have a good relationship with the big Han people and broaden your horizons, and don't let people's eyes be limited to one place...
Over time, things that seem strange at the moment will become common sense.
Once your horizons are opened, it will not be easy to close them in the future.
In addition to knowledge about geography, this book of nature also tells some simple medical knowledge.
These are all things that will become common sense in later generations.
For example, bacteria, such as wound inflammation and suppuration, are caused by bacterial infection.
Another example is the benefits of drinking more hot water...
Compared to relatively pure arithmetic, this book is a hodgepodge.
There is geography, medicine, biology...
Of course, Liu Cheng was not able to explain this book in detail. He basically gave a brief overview, focusing only on geography and medicine, such as drinking more hot water.
Later, there will be brochures such as 2, 3, 4 and 5, which will introduce the remaining aspects...
Smelling the fragrance of books in the room and looking at the many primary school textbooks, Liu Cheng couldn't help but reveal a very strong smile on his face.
The confidence in my heart suddenly became full.
To be honest, even he himself has great expectations. When the time comes, he will build a large-scale school and distribute these textbooks so that all school-age children in the Han Dynasty can study. What will it be like when the time comes?
.
Come to think of it, this scene will be very moving when the time comes!
Thinking about this in his heart, Liu Cheng's mood became very beautiful.
Now that we have come to this world and are still able to go further, we need to do something.
You can't just be the emperor.
As much as possible, we should leave behind something with a more far-reaching impact.
Strive to make this country, which is haunting and full of endless feelings of abandonment, a better place...
"Okay, you did a great job! You have made a great contribution!"
Liu Cheng looked around here carefully and took everything in his eyes, looking very excited.
I couldn't help but stretched out my hand to hold Ma Jun's hand and said this out loud.
"When things unfold next and the news here can be conveyed to the world, I will make you a marquis!
In the future, I plan to form an engineering department, and you will have a big position in this engineering department!"
Uncle Liu, who was highly respected, held hands like this and said such words, Ma Jun was very happy.
What made him most happy was not that the emperor's uncle said he wanted to make him a marquis, but that the emperor's uncle was so excited and happy because of the things he had done.
"This... these are all... the emperor's uncle's contribution.
Without the guidance of the emperor, Ma Jun would not be able to come up with these things... This is Ma Jun's responsibility..."
Ma Jun looked at Liu Cheng and said humbly.
Everything he said was true.
If the emperor's uncle hadn't provided him with ideas, it would have been impossible for him to make these things...
Liu Cheng smiled and waved his hand and said: "The credit should be yours, it's yours... Even if I tell other people about these ideas and let them do it, they really can't do it as well as you...
…”
After talking to Ma Jun like this for a while, Ma Jun began to ask what kind of department the Ministry of Works was and what kind of powers it had.
Liu Cheng immediately told Ma Jun about it.
After knowing what the Ministry of Works was, and knowing that Uncle Liu Huang was planning to make him the Minister of Works, in addition to being responsible for farmland water conservancy and other administrative matters, Ma Jun shook his head repeatedly.
"Uncle Emperor, I can't do this. I don't like political affairs, and I don't have the ability to manage things. I just like to study and come up with some new and useful things..."
After listening to Ma Jun's words, Liu Cheng smiled and said: "It's nothing. When the time comes, I will let you be the chief craftsman under the Ministry of Works and supervise.
And he still has the status of Minister of Industry.
However, as the minister of the Ministry of Works, you don’t have to pay attention to those government affairs. I just give you a transcendent status to prevent you from being looked down upon in the Ministry of Works..."
After hearing what Liu Cheng said, Ma Jun couldn't help but be overjoyed.
Uncle Huang, this is so good!
This is most in line with his character and his true heart!
Immediately, he quickly thanked Liu Cheng.
Liu Cheng smiled and said: "It's nothing. I like people who are capable and willing to do things with their heart. If you are capable, you can let me take a high look here. You have made great contributions, and you deserve these...
…”
What he said made Ma Jun even more happy and grateful that he was not with the wrong person!
Uncle Emperor, this is his own master!
Especially when I remembered that not long ago, I met my father who had wanted me to study hard since he was a child and not let me think about other things.
Seeing the change in his father's attitude towards me and his doing these things, I became even more happy.
I feel a sense of pride and elation.
Extremely enjoyable...
"Uncle Emperor, here, there is a little minister here who has made a gadget for you to take a look at, Uncle Emperor.
The emperor's uncle gave birth to Lin'er, and there are no ministers. It's easy to give him anything else, so he thought of a small gadget to give to the prince..."
After looking at everything here carefully, Liu Cheng, accompanied by Ma Jun, walked out of the house.
Ma Jun looked at Liu Cheng and said.
Hearing what Ma Jun said, Liu Cheng was very interested and immediately asked: "What is it?"
